riding on the metro
Aaaugh! The week started! Surprised me today. And yep, I'm still caught on this insomnia kick...didn't get to bed until 2am last night. But hey, tonight I'll have to catch the VH1 Where Are They Now or somesuch show at Midnight, cuz it'll feature the reuniting of the band Berlin. Their keyboardist was a lovely hostess during the rugby tournament two years ago, and drove us around when we needed to get on the pitch.
My GRE is a week from today, so I bought a little handy book I can study when I ride on the Metro, which I have gotten used to doing quite well. I'm sooo much more stress free when I take public transport, and I get to read and nap too. Anyhow, I should do well on the GRE. Last week I visited the school of journalism here at UMD. While they have a very cool Masters' of Online Journalism degree here, it's really not available for people who are pursuing advanced schooling while working, so I'll have to check out the lamer school of Communications for alternatives.
Just called the woofer I met this weekend. Naturally, as I left my voice mail message, I forgot what my phone number was. In the presence of True Hotness I become a gibbering idiot. However, I'm proud to say that when I chatted it up with this guy again this weekend, I was able to converse lucidly and remember my name, his name, and the city of my birth even while his chest hair was taunting me from within his vest, unlike the last time I talked to him over a year or so ago. Good Jimbo...just remember that these people are mortal like yourself.

Berlin and Riding on the Metro
Coincidence?
Or did you make a subconscious correlation....

I looked over at the Boyfriend during "Bands Reunited" and said, "I think that one [the bearish keyboard player] is gay." He looked at me with mock surprise. "Some of the band members in Berlin were gay? No way! Who'd have thought?" Master of stating the obvious, I am. I blame the two glasses of Sangria at dinner.
